I have said many times that it's not easy to fix this without affecting how pivoting works. Which, in turn, affects backskating. Hopefully, we'll find a good way to fix this without also hurting pivoting.
Give all Defense Players (HUT and WoC) In Reverse from last years game, not so much the actual x-factor but what the x-factor did to the player in the position of "Defense"
While not universally true, most d-man are better back skating then forwards in real hockey, and you still get the speed nerf as a d-man but your pivot from forward to backskating happens faster which allows you to not get burnt by attacking forwards.
Possible that this idea brings in some issues I am not thinking off but I'm sure it could be tweaked to get the desired result.
